Tapioca raw starch is widely used in food formulations such as bakery products, and also in the production of extruded snack foods and tapioca granule beads. Modified starches or starch derivatives have been used as thickeners, binders, bulking agents and stabilizers, as well as optimal bulking agents, sweeteners, flavor carriers and fat substitutes. Foods using Thai tapioca starch include canned foods, frozen foods, dry mixes, baked goods, snack foods, condiments, soups, sausages, dairy products, meat and fish products and baby foods.
